Answer 1

`\text{Totall bill= \$ }138.3627`

Step-by-step explanation

to know the total bill amount we need to add the tip to the total,so

Step 1

find the value of the tip

`\text{tip}=23\text{ percent = }(23)/(100)=0.23`

it means to find the tip amount you need multiply the bill by 0.23,hence

`\begin{gathered} \text{Tip}=112.49\cdot0.23=25.8727 \\ \text{tip amount}=25.8727 \end{gathered}`

Step 2

finally , add the values to know the total restaurant bill including the tip amount

`\begin{gathered} \text{Total bill= bill+tip} \\ \text{Totall bill= \$ 112.49 +\$25.8727} \\ \text{Totall bill= \$ }138.3627 \end{gathered}`

So, the answer is $138.3627.
